Chapter 21 The Third Level of Nourishing Qi (Three Updates, Please Read Later)
"No hunting for the next two months?"
"I see."
Gu Luosheng watched Liu Ying's servant leave.
Perhaps because the weather was too cold and heavy snow was coming, Liu Ying asked the servant to inform him that there would be no hunting in the next few months and to save money on various expenses so as not to be so embarrassed as to borrow money.
Although the salary provided by the treatment level is not small, it can be enjoyed once, and the contribution will be reduced at the current level.
The first-level treatment is to reduce the contribution by 5 points every month, and no monthly salary will be provided if it becomes negative.
The second-level treatment is to reduce the contribution by 10 points every month, and the third-level treatment is 20 points.
The monsters hunted by the four teams these days can only offset the reduction in contribution, which is not enough to improve the treatment level.
The four teams were too careful when hunting monsters and did not have the courage to go deeper.
Thanks to this, there was no loss of personnel in eight months, and the situation stabilized.
Gu Luosheng had no objection.
After the heavy snow covered the whole village, Gu Luosheng just nourished his qi every day to maintain his senses and improved his internal qi cultivation a little.
The rest of the time was spent on the study of digestion.
He bought a lot of paper and ink to do calculations and research, and recorded the results.
He took a different approach and used a very small amount of internal energy to experiment to see if he could forcefully construct meridians.
According to his feeling, there are meridians in places where internal energy can flow freely.
The macroscopic manifestation is that the internal energy flows from the dantian to the whole body unimpeded.
Only when it reaches the internal organs, these deeper places, will the flow of internal energy be blocked.
Based on this situation, Gu Luosheng naturally had an idea.
Since it is blocked, what will happen if I use internal energy to open it?
In many areas, the flow of internal energy does not cause harm, but it is difficult to penetrate. Compared with exploring unknown areas and vomiting blood at every turn, just trying to open up safe areas is obviously more practical.
So, from October to January, Gu Luosheng has been trying to open up blocked areas to allow internal energy to flow smoothly.
The result is really effective. Gu Luosheng's own life force absorption rate is about 12%, and opening up a meridian can increase the life force absorption rate by 1%.
With the twelve meridians, no matter what Gu Luosheng eats, the amount of life energy he absorbs will double.
So the question is, how long does it take to open a meridian?
"Less than seven days..."
Gu Luosheng muttered to himself, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
After having internal energy meridians, the consumption of running internal energy will be greatly reduced, and it has practical value!
The twelve meridians are only a matter of three months, which is completely negligible compared to the return!
"Practice digestion first, and put the rest aside!"
Gu Luosheng made a decision immediately.
...
◇
Ordinary skills
Farming (Level 4: 350/600, 50% increase in output)
Nourishing Qi (Level 4: 700/2000, 100% increase in the speed of practicing Nourishing Qi)
◇
Three months passed in a blink of an eye. Gu Luosheng spent half a month farming and studying ways to increase production.
The rest of the time was spent hunting with the four teams and practicing digestion.
As the meridians were opened up one by one, Gu Luosheng digested food faster and faster, the absorption rate was getting higher and higher, and the digestion technique was completed ahead of schedule.
However, what made Gu Luosheng frown was that this forced passage seemed to have hidden dangers, and he felt a sting from time to time. This bad feeling made him stop practicing and maintain the number of digestion meridians at twelve.
At the same time, Gu Luosheng also collected a hundred silk internal qi during this period and was about to enter the third level of the Qi-nourishing Technique.
"The twelve basic internal qi can circulate on its own and siphon the energy of the whole body. The power of the internal qi will increase greatly at this stage."
The so-called self-circulation is just condensed into a ring in the dantian, connected from beginning to end.
After Gu Luosheng condensed a hundred silk internal qi and cultivated the twelfth basic internal qi, these internal qi naturally connected from beginning to end in the dantian and condensed into a ring.
After entering this state, the twelve basic internal qi have become one, and the power and purity are greatly increased.
Even though Gu Luosheng didn't use his internal energy, he felt that his body was in an amplified state, and he was as light as a swallow.
"There is a big gap between each realm. It's time to learn some life-saving skills..."
Gu Luosheng stood by the pond, and his internal energy was surging.
He had always been practicing, and had hardly considered enhancing his killing ability.
It's not that he didn't want to be stronger, but as a modern man, he was not very good at fighting.
He had practiced the sword technique for so long, but it was only a skilled level. How could he fight against others at this level?
Even if Liu Ying suppressed his internal energy level to the same level, Gu Luosheng would definitely not be his opponent.
The gap between each realm is indeed huge, but it is not an absolute gap.
If the means are backward, it is very likely to become a background board and be killed by someone who crosses the level.
Gu Luosheng felt that Wang Youquan had this potential, and his wind-chasing arrow technique was superb.
If his sword technique for killing demons was at the skilled level, then Wang Youquan would at least have a small success level.
The accuracy of archery at the minor level is already extremely high, not to mention that with the infusion of internal energy, it is enough to chase the wind.
Wang Youquan's arrow speed should have exceeded the speed of sound.
He locked on it and shot it before hearing the sound, and the power is enough to kill the monster.
If the distance is widened, even if Gu Luosheng is at the third level of the Qi-nourishing Technique, it will be in danger.
This situation really made Gu Luosheng feel a sense of crisis.
He held a treasure, but he was weaker than his peers, or even lower-level ones, in terms of combat power. It was simply laughable.
Some changes must be made, and we can’t just keep practicing blindly!
“Only twelve basic internal qi are needed for the third level of Qi cultivation, but the fourth level has increased to thirty-six! The fifth and sixth levels of Qi cultivation require seventy-two and one hundred and eight respectively!”
“Twelve basic internal qi is already so difficult, no wonder many practitioners in the hunter family are stuck in the third level for their entire lives. It is not possible to break through with ordinary meat, and a large amount of monster meat is required!”
“Fortunately, I have already mastered the digestion technique, and the efficiency of food absorption has doubled. As long as there is enough ordinary meat, even twenty-four basic internal qi can be forcibly cultivated!”
Gu Luosheng is still confident.
Now that the speed of cultivation has been enhanced by the digestion technique, it has reached eight silk internal qi per day.
Twenty-four basic internal qi is only a matter of three hundred days.
As long as there is enough meat, miracles can be created!
Compared with monster meat, ordinary meat is undoubtedly much easier to obtain, and you can buy it unlimitedly if you have money.
Gu Luosheng sometimes wonders what will happen if he steals the village chief's business and raises livestock himself...
Naturally, he will be beaten to death.
This is a means of recycling monster meat and copper coins, and it is naturally impossible to allow outsiders to get involved.
Therefore, even though he knows that livestock can grow one pound of meat without six times the feed as long as the method is correct, Gu Luosheng still can't raise pigs to get rich.
Fortunately, these are things from the previous life, and Gu Luosheng has no way to guarantee that they will be realized, so he is not too disappointed and continues to practice hard.
This time he changed his mind. If he can't practice killing moves well, then practice dodging moves and running moves.
Simply fast speed and long running, this doesn't require any fighting talent or physical instinct, right?
And as the saying goes, the world's martial arts can only be broken by speed!
As long as you don't want to defeat the opponent, then fast speed can make yourself invincible!
And this thing is generally called "qinggong".
